Photo Blog Hop


For this Blog Hop we are to post one of our favorite pictures. I love this picture because we are totally ourselves on here. I can never be serious in a picture, especially when I am told to be. I love the way we are naturally holding hands. And of course, the '57 truck we are standing by "rocks."

Boating is Overrated

The things we do to kids for their safety. What is she thinking?

She is thinking.. "Why do I have to wear this over sized bobber?"

"Someone please help me out of this thing."

Happy 4th of July

How was your 4th? Hopefully you all still have all of your fingers. I'm sure we all ate too much and are uncomfortably regretting it today.

Here is a picture of Felicity sporting her patriotic tattoo.

I spent the day at the City Park. Our church has a booth where we sell strawberry shakes. It is a long day but we have a great time. I get to see a lot of familiar faces and some not so familiar. I love to people watch so this is right up my alley. It gets pretty crazy sometimes in our booth with 3 very loud blenders running and ice cream flying everywhere. But this year we advanced from St. Paul's Strawberry Shakes to Famous St. Paul's Strawberry Shakes. This was our 4th year selling them and we have people who can't wait to come and have one of them. Just ask Chris & Patti.

And of course there are all the fans of the polka band hanging out in the shade. Felicity found her Great Grandpa and Grandma and had to pose for a picture. It was a great day.

What did you do?

Flashback Friday

Boy oh boy did we ever have fun with this car. I tried to drive it one time. Yep, just once. The shifter was sloppy and I couldn't get it into gear. Brian got frustrated with me so I never drove it again. Check out the dice from the mirror and the Playboy air freshener in the back. (I hated that thing) This car was his baby and looking back I wish I would have loved it as much as he did. I am not a car person, at all. I don't know makes or models or years. Only colors. I probably couldn't even name what kind of car most of you drive that I see all the time. But I would know the color. I do know that Deb's white car thingy has a really funny name, starts with an E I think. Patti's is .......um.......black. Whatever. This game is not one of my strengths.


Don't we look cool. This was taken at the park where the riverwalk is now. It must have been spring, no leaves on the trees. That is Patti sitting with me. We took her everywhere with us even when she didn't want to and probably shouldn't have gone. I think she got exposed to some things that she wouldn't have at her age.
Sure wish we had this car today. By the way, it is a 1969 Chevelle.
